I have drivers from DPT; as soon as I have some sample adapters to test
with I'll be committing them to the 4.x and 5.x branches.  FreeBSD is on
Adaptec/DPT's support roadmap, and the folks involved in this project are
quite up to speed.

In the meantime, I can suggest that you look at Mylex and AMI's product 
offerings, although we're a little behind the ball on both just now. See 
http://people.freebsd.org/~msmith/RAID for more details.

rivals and unfortunately opponents also.  But not because people want
to be opponents, rather because the tasks and relationships force
people to take different points of view.  [Dr. Fritz Todt]
